Absolutely yes. Almost the entire Corbyn inner circle. From Jezza himself, Ronald McDonnell to Andrew Murray (Worth Abbey and Oxford) and Seamus Milne (Winchester College and Oxford).

All old fashioned upper class anti Semites only now wearing Coal Not Dole badges. Same schools, same lives, same aristocratic or upper middle class obsessive disdain for Jews. If they’d lived in the thirties you know they’d be wearing pseudo-military uniforms.

It's not, but when one presents one's supposed superior academic qualifications one should avoid typographical errors. One should also avoid spelling mistakes such as "priviledged" which you put in a different post.

I repeatedly tell my trainees to check their writings before hitting the send button or sealing the envelope as it avoids the potential for embarrasing errors.

Oh fk off. It's a forum. People don't check this st. And they shouldn't have to do so.

Also a first isn't supposedly superior. It is superior to all the other grades below it. That's the point of the system.

Anyway in Boris's case its early days. He is like someone that bluffed his way into a top surgeons post.
At some stage he will be asked to perform some complex operations.
He probably has a man for that.
He has been the mayor of London twice.

And once more for posterity ...

Can I nominate Agammemnon (it isn't Agammemnon - the correct spelling is Agamemnon BTW) for the ultimate fail post of 2019.

You are so stupid it must hurt.

Biggbn, I’m not sure if you’re drunk, purposely trying to be antagonistic or simply too upset to think straight, but I’d step away from the keyboard this evening because your posts don’t make any sense at all.

Just an observation.
Explain? I am none of the things you suggest, was just commenting on 'more than any...except'..? And commenting I do it myself sometimes. Why is this viewed as antagonist or nonsensical?

Whereas I could not give a damn in informal settings such as this. Horses for courses brother man, horses for courses.

And once more for posterity, I was not presenting myself as superior in any way, not my modus operandi, which I'm sure you know if you are aware of my posting history, I was merely answering a point made about academic achievement.

I have never heard of this person but it appears that Labour have chosen a completely unelectable radical leftist chap to lead their party. Anyone have any idea why they've done this?
To answer OP's question, fk knows.

A few years back a lot of right wing capitalists decided to invest £3 in Corbyn. Their stock has gone down and up, but right now is very high indeed. Possibly a better investment than bitcoin..

You can almost transplant that to any socialist government in waiting, they are almost always from an upper middle class background.

Take the Cuban revolutionaries from an educated middle class background, the exact same class they went on to alienate enough most of them left to go to the United States.

...is it me or have they shut this place down to delete all the nasty posts from various people not happy with the election result?
Whatever.

I’d just like to say, whichever political slant you may lean towards, have a very merry Christmas.
Feels like all mine have come at once. laugh

There seem to be zero posts from a lot of people who were distinctly vocal in the weeks before the election.

Perhaps their funding just dried up.
